YWN regrets to inform you of the Petira of Rebbitzen Amelie Jakobowitz A”H (83), the Rebbitzen of the former Chief Rabbi of England, Rabbi Emmanuel Jacobowitz. She had been listed in critical condition, suffering from pneumonia which lead to kidney issues and other complications.
She was the eldest child of Rav Eliyahu Munk, author of “The Call of the Torah” and “The World of Prayer.” She had been active in numerous chessed organizations, Torah education, Shalom Bayis issues, until very recently. She comes from a remarkable generation of women who never let the vicissitudes of life stop her ability to pursue her Avodas Hashem.
Just yesterday, YWN had posted a Tehillim request to serve as a Zechus for her.
Levaya information was unavailable to YWN.
Boruch Dayan Emmes…

May you NEVER no of any Tzar again.
May your dear Mother be a Melitza Yosher for you and your entire family.
It is a great loss for ALL of Klal Yisroel
I believe the levaya will be in London on Sunday morning and in Eretz Yisrael on Sunday night.
Program Editor:
The correct spelling of her name is
Jakobovits
I believe the levaya is 5:30pm from her home going on to E”Y. we are bereft of an amazing lady, may we all strive to live up to her example of a Eishes Chayil.
the Levaya will be leaving SHAMGAR at 9.30 AM (israeli time) and going HAR HAZEISIM.
MAY THE NIFTERES BE A MELITZA YESHERA FOR ALL OF KLAL YISROEL !!!
